OFFSTAGE: Who Watched the Royal Wedding?

(CMT Offstage keeps a 24/7 watch on everything that’s happening with country music artists behind the scenes and out of the spotlight.)

The question was, “Are you getting caught up in the royal wedding fever or not?” And Kellie Pickler, being the know-it-all newlywed that she is, doesn’t think it’s right for the whole world to watch what should be between husband and wife. “I feel so sorry that on the most important, most beautiful day of their life it has to be just an open book to the whole world. I mean, I couldn’t imagine not being able to run away and marry my best friend,” she told CMT. “‘Cause really, that’s what it’s about.” But Little Big Town‘s Karen Fairchild admits she definitely has the fever. “I am gonna watch. It’s so interesting the choices that she’s making fashion wise, and I’m kind of a fashion junkie. Watching her, I think, almost mimic Diana — you know, the royal blue announcement dress that she wore that just went crazy, everybody wanted that dress. I can’t wait to see what she wears at the wedding.” What she wore this morning (April 29), if you are interested, was a long-sleeved lace V-neck gown by Alexander McQueen’s Sarah Burton and a short veil.
